Huge download for no reason!!! Navigon and other navigation software lets you download specific maps (download only the states that you will be visiting, for example, to save space). TomTom is forcing me to download the entirety of thr USA and Canada before it will even open. Ouch! That is BAD for low-storage devices.

Get a tomtom device and don't waste your money I loved my tomtom device I had years ago until it just stopped working, but that's a different story. Since then, I've been just using Google maps to navigate, but I missed the rich features of tomtom, but this is a poor substitute that has poor connection to gps with serious lag time and got me lost three times in the first two weeks. I finally got tired of apologizing to clients for being late and went back to Google maps. I wish I could've gotten a refund. Wish it had worked better.

Unsupported app This app is basically unsupported. They are unable to catch up with the progress in the phone screen resolution. It seems to work with the old 1080x920 pixel screen resolution phones, but not with modern phones with 1440x2560. Waste of money, do not buy it unless it costs less than $5!

Does not work nexus 6 total black screen I paid for this app lifetime support and map updates and what they do is bring subscription model and abandon this app for newer app I want my money back tomtom

Poor support and clunky/buggy. I have been using this app since June 2014, and prior to that a physical GPS unit by TomTom. I have found that it makes the phone quite hot, and crashes/freezes somewhat frequently. It has proven unreliable on my Samsung S4 as well as my Z3 compact - the GPS doesn't seem to pick up the location properly on stock firmware on a regular basis. To top it all off they offer very poor support - if you have questions they force you to register to their ticketing system. Their staff are not very knowledgeable, and are very lazy asking questions which you've already provided them with the answer to. They also recently changed their product to a subscription arrangement, and those who stupidly purchased their overpriced app like I did are stuck with an unsupported and non-updating app. Not impressed - I will stick with a data plan and the FREE and SUPERIOR Google Maps.

Does not support many newer devices Lowered from 3 to 1 star because while there is a promise of lifetime free updates, and says it supports Android 2.5+, it does not support the Google Nexus 6, which I just upgraded to. By Google Play standards this is a very expensive app and promising lifetime free updates yet not supporting new devices is dishonest. ---ABRIDGED ORIGINAL REVIEW--- Interface too cumbersome and confusing. The Android options menu button should bring up menus for the app to let me get to what I want, instead it does nothing. Finding my way around the app has been a frustrating game of trial and error. It takes too many selections and decisions to get from an address in my contact book to navigating to said address. Tom Tom makes you select the state of the address, then the city, then the street and then street number. I'd be inclined to ask for a refund and give it one star, however, I love its routing options -- like being able to block certain parts of a route and being able to choosing between fastest and most fuel efficient route. Other pluses are that maps are stored on the phone and being able to set way points along a route.

Needs work but serves one purpose of offline maps and offline routing calc. The user interface badly needs an update. It failed me last time I needed it offline in a remote area due to the 30 day required check of the license against the Google Play store. Could be faster to load and respond to taps. Won't work on my tablet. IQ routes used to be leading edge but can't compete with real time traffic based routing like Waze and Google Maps. Waze map data keeps getting better.

Terrible App UI is designed copied from stand alone GPS and not intuitive. Settings don't save. No longer integrated to Google Map locations when seek to navigate. No updates whatsoever to try to improve app. Way over priced for this crappy app. Does not support devices with larger screen (Note 4) DO NOT BUY.

What the hack is wrong with you Tommy??? Did you make a pact with the "De...gle" to keep the app stupid until everyone eventually loses interest, or is your UI developed by a conservative fraction of your team who can't conceive to make changes more than once a century? There are tons of new features worth implementing. You were once leading the pack, now you're way behind.

Weird routes and no turn by turn voice guide Took me on weird routes. Instead of just taking me to my destination it would have me go around the block to the back of my destination. This happened multiple times, which was very inconvenient in a strange city. It also would not give turn by turn directions unless I was connected to the Internet. While traveling abroad I didn't have mobile data so my wife had to try to decipher the route and read it to me while I looked for road signs.

Was working fine until I got a bigger screen This app will not work with large displays like the LG G3! If I could select a 0 rating I would. I have been using this app for nearly 2 years and have been very satisfied with the navigation on my former Samsung Galaxy s3. I then upgraded my phone to a larger screen with a LG G3, what do I find out, my TomTom app is no longer compatible with my device. Is this a way to get us to buy the new app that works with larger displays. Two message to TomTom about this and the response has been "we are working on the compatibility". Yeah right, does it take 2 months to get this working. I wonder about all those iPhones with the big displays if they have the same issue! I am really upset!

This horrendously buggy Takes 2-3 reboots to make it work, burns battery like there is no tomorrow. It will discharge your battery even if charger is plugged in. On initial set up wouldn't wanna work on 2nd load; had to re-install maps 3 times (2.85G each time!) Plus many features TomToms have are missing. Great idea but vastly inferior to their devices in execution. Wish my money back :(

Recent problem with app I had to install & unistall this app few times. There are two different issues either the app crash at the start up or it would start & can't find any map & this is after downloading the 2.85 gb of new maps. The third issue is that won't even let you to use the up without that update. I am using a note 3 with about 20 gb free space so its not my phone could you please let me know what needs to get dobe to fix these issues Thanks

Needs work On a road trip to US (I'm from Canada) it stopped working because I had no data/wifi (it was useless). I had to drive with my paper map and then make a stop in a city I had no intention of stopping at and then looking for McDonald's/Starbucks to get a Wi-Fi. What a waste of time that was. It's funny cause McDonald's seems to be everywhere except when you really need it. When you close the app, as it shutting down it will start up again (wtf?). The app also has super slow response to clicks.

Too large of download There needs to be an option to download maps by state. I don't need the whole USA when I rarely go more than 3 different states. Nokia Here would be a good example to follow. Otherwise the app is nice.

no good Im depend on this gps app to do my job but yesterday for no reason in the middle of the road with no data service tomtom ask me to update my app.. and the app won't start before this update. I have no data on my phone and it needs 2.6g data.. TomTom can you change it we can use the app before the update?

Not impressed I was in the woods with no cell reception, turned on TomTom off line map I thought great I can find my way. It said Google license not recognized had to get a reception to confirm license. So did not work. I thought I paid for an off line map

Needs an Internet connection! This "offline" app must have an internet connection every 30 days in order to check your software license with the play store. If it has been more than 30 days and you don't have a cell signal when you try to open the map, you are stranded without a map until you get a signal. Customer service will try not to tell you this.

Poor highway interchange guidance No clear guidance on complex highway exit. Please improve this. Edit: one star due to poor reliability. During long distance travel, this apparently suffers from frequent black out. I need to restart the apparently in order to regain GPS fix.

Awesome app First of all not sure why others are having problems, but I've used this app on the iPhone and now on a Note 3. No problems. One of the very few apps that let's you store maps on the device rather than burning through your data. A must buy. EDIT. After using the app for a while I've noticed certain features missing that were present in the iPhone version. 1 being able to download or change voices on the device. 2 there is no option to play music directly through app. Very disappointed!

does not work on Galaxy Note 4 Fair warning: this does not work on a Galaxy Note 4, apparently because the app can't handle the higher screen resolution. You get nothing but a black screen in drive mode. TomTom has said on their forums they'll fix this, but has not said when. Have been using on iphone for years, really hope they fix it soon.
